Re: Major achievement for the team

Looks very good guys!

Our experience with tracks showed us that if the modules are rigid enough, most issues (side loading, warping, binding, etc) teams have with tracks become non-issues. What we DID still run into was normal wear and tear. Now's the time to inspect after each driving evolution and look for "wear grease" or dark, greasy deposits left by wearing material. If you can lubricate/shim the area early, you'll avoid early component failure most of the time.

Nice work!
